At six o'clock in the evening, Lao Mai's family set up two large tables of good wine and food, preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner.
This year's New Year's Eve dinner was particularly sumptuous, with five large bowls of meat dishes alone, including fish, meat, and everything else.
This is all thanks to Mai Sui, because the meat was brought back by Mai Sui last time.
Tian Guifen pickled it with salt and saved it for eating during the New Year.
As the head of the family, Mai Xiangdong said a few simple words because everyone was eager to start eating.
He also didn't want to give a long speech and spoil everyone's fun.
"Okay, you guys are so greedy, let's eat!"
As soon as Mai Xiangdong finished speaking, everyone immediately reached out for their chopsticks to pick up the food.
The atmosphere at the dinner table was lively and everyone's face was filled with happy smiles.
This was the first time Mai Sui felt this kind of atmosphere, and to be honest, it was not bad.
While Shen Xingchen was eating, he picked up some delicious food for Mai Sui: "Wife, have this, it's delicious."
Mai Liangcai also picked up some food for his wife Song Xiaojuan. His wife was still breastfeeding, so she had to eat more good food.
Naturally, Chen Jiushan was not willing to be left behind. His wife was pregnant now, so one person could provide for two.
In addition, Mai Chunni has an honest personality. When eating, she only eats the one or two dishes in front of her. She doesn't even pick up the delicious dishes that are a little further away.
Chen Jiushan became anxious and could only keep picking up food for his wife.
"Wife, you should eat more fish. I heard that if you eat more fish when you are pregnant, your future baby will be smart."
Mai Chunni is honest, not stupid. Since Chen Jiushan has put the food in her bowl, she will naturally eat it.
So, among her peers, Guo Hongmei was the only one who had no husband to pick food for her.
It wasn't a big deal. Guo Hongmei has hands and feet, so how could she not pick up food and eat it by herself?
But everyone has a husband who loves them, but she doesn't, which makes her feel a little disappointed.
As the saying goes, happiness is the result of comparison, and so is unhappiness.
Guo Hongmei also wanted to experience her husband's care, so she nudged him with her elbow.
As a result, Mai Juncai thought he was sitting too close and disturbing his wife's meal, so he "very considerately" moved to the side.
Then we continued to eat and drink, it was so enjoyable!
Guo Hongmei: Sure enough, she shouldn’t have such extravagant hopes!!!
After the meal, everyone continued to stay at Mai Xiangdong’s house to prepare for the New Year’s Eve.
Mai Sui only sat for a while and then went home because she only had one day off and had to start training again early tomorrow morning, even though tomorrow was New Year's Day.
So, she didn't want to stay here and stay up late listening to Mai Lao San bragging.
Shen Xingchen naturally went home with Mai Sui.
The two did not return to the army immediately, but planned to stay in Lianhua Village for one night and return early tomorrow.
Walking on the country road on the way home, Shen Xingchen took the initiative to hold Mai Sui's hand, interlocked their fingers, and then put them both in his pocket.
Normally Shen Xingchen would not be so bold, but right now everyone was at home chatting and staying up late, and there were not many people outside, so he dared to do it.
Mai Sui laughed at him: "That's all the courage you have."
Shen Xingchen looked at Mai Sui's smiling eyes, his heart trembling slightly. He suddenly leaned close to Mai Sui's ear and whispered, "No, I still dare..."
Before she could finish her words, Shen Xingchen leaned over and kissed Mai Sui on the lips.
The lips rubbed back and forth and bit lightly, and the temperature of the lips slowly went from slightly cool to hot.
Suddenly, it started snowing.
Snowflakes fluttered down like blessings from God for the two of them, landing on their hair and shoulders, giving them the feeling of growing old together.
On the quiet country road, the only sounds they could hear were each other's breathing, heartbeats, and the sound of their lips blending together.
At this moment, it seemed as if they were the only two people left in the world, and a simple and pure happiness flowed between them.
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Xingchen finally let go of Mai Sui's lips, but still held her tightly in his arms.
Looking at Mai Sui's slightly swollen lips, Shen Xingchen's eyes were deep and his voice was hoarse: "Wife, let's go home."
As soon as they returned home, Shen Xingchen hurriedly poured bath water for Mai Sui.
The water had been kept warm on the stove before I went out in the afternoon, so now is the perfect time to wash.
But in the end, one person became two.
The ground was covered with overflowing water.
Shen Xingchen didn't care about so much anymore. All he could think about were the little games his wife played with him.
In addition, Mai Laosan and Mai Hongcai are not at home tonight, so Shen Xingchen seems to be much bolder.
He was very proactive in cooperating to meet Mai Sui's various requests.
Mai Sui also clearly felt that Shen Xingchen was particularly open tonight. Unlike before, he would rather bite the quilt than dare to scream.
In this kind of situation, if the other party is willing to cooperate, it will naturally be more enjoyable.
So, the two of them stayed awake all night, sighing that the night was too short.
.........
At five o'clock in the morning of the next day, Shen Xingchen simply tidied up the house and drove Mai Sui back to the army.
He himself was also preparing to move back to the military area.
Because the wheat ears can sneak back home at night.
Now, this matter has become an open secret, and Qi Chuanqing usually turns a blind eye and pretends not to know.
The sentinel battalion commander Zhang Haoshan simply ignored it.
Otherwise, what else can I do!
So Mai Sui stayed in the camp during the day and sneaked back home at night.
Shen Xingchen was not idle either. During the day, he went to the military research institute to discuss issues with Sheng Huainan, and at night he went home to accompany his wife.
Sheng Huainan was fascinated by the notebook that Mai Sui wrote for him, and he wished that one day could turn into 48 hours.
Besides that, he was a little jealous of Shen Xingchen.
This was the first time in Sheng Huainan's life that he felt jealous of someone.
Because he discovered that Mai Sui would give Shen Xingchen special treatment.
She didn't write some of the answers in her notebook, but she told Shen Xingchen about them.
So, Sheng Huainan suggested: "How about I go back with you at night?"
Shen Xingchen had a complicated expression: "My wife sometimes comes home late, I'm afraid that's not appropriate?"
"It's okay. I don't mind."
Shen Xingchen: .....You don’t mind, but I do!
Time at night is precious and he doesn't want to be disturbed!
Besides, every time his wife had sex with him, it was after the fact, and in bed. How could she let Sheng Huainan join in!
Sheng Huainan didn't notice Shen Xingchen's embarrassment and followed him back.
Mai Sui had a special training tonight and came back a little late.
Then when she entered the house, she found Sheng Huainan in her home.
When Sheng Huainan saw the wheat ears, he was even more excited than Shen Xingchen, and he went up to them with an excited look on his face.
"Comrade Mai Sui, you're back, come on, we've been waiting for you!"
Three seconds later, Sheng Huainan was carried away by his guards.
Mai Sui attacked too quickly, and before the guards could stop him, Sheng Huainan had already fallen.
Tonight, the doctor on duty in the emergency room of the military hospital happened to be Xie Zhicheng from last time.
When Xie Zhicheng learned that he was beaten by Mai Sui again, the expression on his face was indescribable.
Sheng Huainan has a special identity, so Xie Zhicheng must report him.
So, Dean Yang Changming found out.
Then, Commander Zhao Weiguo also found out.
Zhao Weiguo: .....
